We are looking for a small team (or individuals willing to work on a team) of volunteers willing to lead a class of adult Himalayan immigrants regarding Citizenship Test preparation. Volunteers should be comfortable developing their own lesson plans based on student need. Volunteers should have some experience with the citizenship test, either having taken it before or familiarizing themselves with knowledge of American history and civics. Volunteers should be able to speak English clearly and slowly.

Mission Statement
NYTSC’s mission is to preserve and promote Tibetan/Himalayan culture and to provide services required for a successful transition to America. We are here to promote the well-being and success of Tibetan/Himalayan communities in the New York City area, communities that suffer from lack of access to language and culturally-appropriate services. Our organization will offer education, and empowerment activities that respect cultures and promote integration. Various programs will be offered - educational programs tailored specifically to children and parents, childcare training and parenting workshops, ESL classes, cultural activities, after-school homework help for children, academic advisement, youth-focused activities, job training, and US citizenship preparation. Through our work and mission, it is our hope to guide every single client to a successful life in America.
